Course summary

Our adult nursing course offers a supportive, engaging path to becoming a confident registered nurse. You’ll learn from experts who are informed by active research, ensuring you’ll have the most up-to-date knowledge to help people. This degree has a 50:50 split between academic study and clinical placements for practical, hands-on experience. This allows you to develop your strength as a nurse as you apply the knowledge and skills needed to care for adults in today’s complex and ever-changing healthcare environment. Throughout the course we aim to prepare you for a career as a compassionate, resilient and future-focused individual, who can advocate for patients while giving an excellent level of care. You’ll have the skills to work with patients, families and carers, as well as members of the nursing team and other professionals.

Assessment method

In clinical practice you’ll be assessed by registered professionals who are responsible for your learning and development whilst on placement. Within the University, assessment takes many forms including individual and group assignments, written and oral exams, and practical assessments. You’ll need to demonstrate knowledge and application of nursing concepts and techniques, and will develop abilities, skills and competencies in providing person-centred care. You’ll need to produce work that is both evaluative and creative and show you can conduct independent, in-depth enquiry within the discipline. You’ll need to be able to draw on a wide variety of evidence-based material such as academic journals, textbooks, policy and national health-related guidelines and be able to evaluate and critique received opinion.
